from a son of thirty years and upward, even till a son of fifty years, every one going in to the host, to do work in the tent of meeting.
4 Uzao wa Kohathi watalinda vile vitu vitakatifu zaidi vilivyohifadhiwa kwa ajili yangu katika hema ya kukutania.
'This [is] the service of the sons of Kohath in the tent of meeting, the holy of holies:
5 Wakati kambi inapojiandaa kusonga mbele, Haruni na wanawe lazima waende hemani, kulishusha pazia linalotenganisha mahali patakatifu na kulifunika sanduku la ushuhuda kwa pazia hilo. Watalifunika hilo sanduku kwa ngozi za pomboo.

and have put on it a covering of badger skin, and have spread a garment completely of blue above, and have placed its staves.
7 Watatandika nguo ya rangi ya samawi kwenye meza ya mikate ya wonyesho. Juu yake wataweka sahani, vijiko, mabakuli na vikombe vya kumiminia. Mikate itakuwepo daima mezani.
'And on the table of the presence they spread a garment of blue, and have put on it the dishes, and the spoons, and the bowls, and the cups of the libation, and the bread of continuity is on it,
8 Wataifunika na nguo ya rangi nyekundu na ngozi za pomboo. na kuweka miti ya kubebea.
and they have spread over them a garment of scarlet, and have covered it with a covering of badger skin, and have placed its staves,
9 Watachukua nguo ya rangi ya samawi na kukifunika kinara, pamoja na taa zake, na koleo zake, na sahani zake na vikombe vyake vya kuwekea mafuta ya taa.
and have taken a garment of blue, and have covered the candlestick of the lamp, and its lights, and its snuffers, and its snuff-dishes, and all its oil vessels wherewith they minister to it;
10 Wataweka kinara na vifaa vyake vikiwa vimefunikwa na ngozi ya pomboo, na wataweka kwenye miti ya kukibebea.
and they have put it and all its vessels unto a covering of badger skin, and have put [it] on the bar.
11 Watafunika na nguo ya samawi katika madhabau ya dhahabu. Wataifunika na ngozi za pomboo, na kuweka ile miti ya kubebea.
'And on the golden altar they spread a garment of blue, and have covered it with a covering of badger skin, and have placed its staves;
12 Watavichukua vyombo vyote vya kazi takatifu na kuvizonga kwenye hiyo nguo ya rangi ya samawi. Watavifunika na ngozi za pomboo na kuviweka hivyo vyombo kwenye miti ya kubebea.
and have taken all the vessels of ministry wherewith they minister in the sanctuary, and have put [them] unto a garment of blue, and have covered them with a covering of badger skin, and have put [them] on the bar,
13 Watayaondoa majivu kwenye madhabahu na kutandika nguo ya rangi ya zambarau juu yake.
and have removed the ashes of the altar, and have spread over it a garment of purple;
14 Watavieka kwenye miti ya kubebea vyombo vyote wanavyovitumia kwa kazi ya madhabahuni. Vyombo hivi ni vyetezo, majembe, mabakuli na vitu vingine vya madhabahuni. Wataifuniks madhabahu na ngozi za pomboo na kuweka ile miti ya kubebea.
and have put on it all its vessels wherewith they minister about it, the censers, the hooks, and the shovels, and the bowls, all the vessels of the altar, and have spread on it a covering of badger skin, and have placed its staves:
15 Wakati Haruni na wanawe walipokuwa wamekamilisha kupafunika mahali patakatifu na vyombo vyote, na kambi itakapoanza kuendelea mbele, ndipo wana wa Kohathi watakapokuja kubeba vitu vya mahali patakatifu. Kama watagusa vyombo vitakatifu, lazima watakufa. Hii ni kazi ya wana wa uzao wa Kohathi, kubeba mapambo ya hema ya kukutania.
'And Aaron hath finished — his sons also — covering the sanctuary, and all the vessels of the sanctuary, in the journeying of the camp, and afterwards do the sons of Kohath come in to bear [it], and they do not come unto the holy thing, that they have died; these [things are] the burden of the sons of Kohath in the tent of meeting.
16 Eliazari mwana wa Haruni kuhani atalinda na kusimamia mafuta ya taa, ubani mzuri, sadaka za mara kwa mara na mafuta ya upako. Atasimamia ulinzi wa hema lote na vyote vilivyomo, mahali patakatifu na vyombo vyake.”
'And the oversight of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, [is] the oil of the lamp, and the spice-perfume, and the present of continuity, and the anointing oil, the oversight of all the tabernacle, and of all that [is] in it, in the sanctuary, and in its vessels.'
17 BWANA akanena na Musa na Haruni. Akasema,
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
18 Usiruhusu kabila la Wakohathi kuondolewa kati ya Walawi.
'Ye do not cut off the tribe of the families of the Kohathite from the midst of the Levites;
19 Walinde waishi ili wasije wakafa, kwa kufanya hivi. Wanapokuwa wanasogelea
but this do to them, and they have lived, and do not die in their drawing nigh the holy of holies: — Aaron and his sons go in, and have set them, each man to his service, and unto his burden,
20 wasije wakaingia ndani ili kuona eneo takatifu hata kwa kitambo, vinginevyo watakufa. Bali Haruni na wanawe wanaweza kuingia, ndipo Haruni na Wanawe watakapowapangia Wakohathi kazi maalumu ya kufanya, kwa kila mmoj.”
and they go not in to see when the holy thing is swallowed, that they have died.'
21 BWANA akanena na Musa tena, Akasema, “Fanya sensa kwa wana Gerishoni pia, kwa kufuata familia za mababu zao, koo zao.
And Jehovah speaketh unto Moses, saying,

24 Hii ndiyo itakuwa kazi ya koo za Gerishoni, wanapotumikia na wanachobeba.
'This [is] the service of the families of the Gershonite, to serve — and for burden,
25 Watabeba pazia la masikani, hema la kukutania, na vifunikio vyake, vifuniko vya ngozi ya pomboo ambvyo viko juu yake, na pazia kwenye lango la hema ya kukutania.
and they have borne the curtains of the tabernacle, and the tent of meeting, its covering, and the covering of the badger [skin] which [is] on it above, and the vail at the opening of the tent of meeting,
26 Watabeba pazia la ua, pazia la kwenye mlango wa ua, ambao uko karibu na maskani karibu na madhabahu, kamba zake na vifaa vyote vya utumishi wake. Chochote kinachotakiwa kufanywa kutokana na vitu hivi, wao ndio watakaofanya.
and the hangings of the court, and the vail at the opening of the gate of the court which [is] by the tabernacle, and by the altar round about, and their cords, and all the vessels of their service, and all that is made for them — and they have served.

'By the command of Aaron and his sons is all the service of the sons of the Gershonite in all their burden, and in all their service; and ye have laid a charge on them concerning the charge of all their burden.
28 Huu ndio utumishi wa koo za uzao wa wana wa Wagerishoni katka hema ya kukutania. Ithamari mwana wa Haruni kuhani atawaongoza katika utumishi.
This [is] the service of the families of the sons of the Gershonite in the tent of meeting; and their charge [is] under the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.
29 Utawahesabu uzao wa Merari kwa koo zao, na uwapange katika familia za mabau zao,
'The sons of Merari, by their families, by the house of their fathers, thou dost number them;
30 kuanzia wenye umri wa miaka thelatini hadi miaka hamsini. Umuhesabu kila atakayeungana na kundi lenye utumishi katika hema ya kukutania.
from a son of thirty years and upward even unto a son of fifty years thou dost number them, every one who is going in to the host, to do the service of the tent of meeting.
31 Huu ndio wajibu na kazi yao katika utumishi wao kwenye hema ya kukutania. Watazilinda mbao za maskani, mataluma yake, nguzo na makalishio yake,
'And this [is] the charge of their burden, of all their service in the tent of meeting; the boards of the tabernacle, and its bars, and its pillars, and its sockets,
32 pamoja na nguzo za ua zinazozunguka masikani, makalishio yake, vigingi na kamba zake, na vifaa vinginevya ujenzi. Waorodheshe kwa majina na majukumu yao.
and the pillars of the court round about, and their sockets, and their pins, and their cords, of all their vessels, and of all their service; and by name ye do number the vessels of the charge of their burden.
33 Huu ndio utumishi wa koo za uzao wa Merari, ambao wanatakiwa kufanya katika hema ya kukutania, chini ya uongozi wa Ithmari mwana wa Haruni kuhani.”
'This [is] the service of the families of the sons of Merari, for all their service, in the tent of meeting, by the hand of Ithamar son of Aaron the priest.'
